man how can i improve my bunnyhop?? i need to get it higher.
please Help.

Set up objects to try and hop them. It's better if the object is not very sturdy so that if you don't make it, it will fall over, instead of yourself falling over. Try using 2X4s stactked on top of eachother, that works well.

Practice.

Quoted for truth. Setting up boxes or whatever in the road and just getting used to hopping over at various speeds is good because it makes you work on your timing, which is really important. After you can hop over little stuff and hop decently high, then you can work your way up to bigger objects.
Also, just try hopping at slow speeds to work on your technique. Here's a page with a detailed explanation of the steps: http://www.bmxbasics.org/new/bmx0703.html

I've found that you hop higher when you're trying to clear something. For example, I can't hop high up a curb or on flat, but if I'm hopping from flat onto a ledge/bench/whatever, I can do it without issue.

I've noticed the same thing.

My firends ask me how high I can bunny hop, and it's just over a curb. But I have no problem getting onto benches, ledges and over medians.

"the bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began...there was Cowboy Neal at the wheel of a bus to never-ever land."
